This paper intends to analyse an expression that has stood out in the Brazilian political scene especially: “SHE IS (A) [male Pn] IN SKIRT(S)”, as in “she is a Bolsonaro in skirts”, referring to the Brazilian congresswoman Joice Hasselmann. The analysis are based on the articulation between discourse and cognition as proposed by the category of pre-discourses (PAVEAU, 2013a), conceived as shared frames of beliefs, knowledge and practices that inform discourses both in producing and interpreting meanings. Articulated with considerations on gender stereotypes as primary frames (RIDGEWAY, 2009), the analysis point to the construction of feminin representation in the Brazilian politics strongly connected to the male universe, reinforcing, thus, the duality between public and private spaces, which relegate women to the latter.
